EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic map drawn up for the Algiers expedition in 1830. Created by French School in the 19th century, this lithograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the era of French conquest, imperialism, and colonization. The map encompasses various regions including Algeria, Spain, Sicily, Minorca, South France, Balearics, Tyrrhenian Sea, Majorca, North Africa, Balearic Islands, Italy, Sardinia and more. With intricate details and precise markings on display here at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France; this map was an essential tool during the Algerian expedition. It highlights strategic locations such as the Bay of Algiers and Corsica while also encompassing Morocco's coastline and Tunisia. The significance of this map extends beyond its geographical accuracy. It represents not only European expansion but also Arab civilization's interaction with African territories. The presence of Maghreb countries like Sudan adds to its historical value. As we explore this image from eArchives Charmet courtesy of Bridgeman Images (not affiliated with any company), it is important to appreciate its cultural importance without commercial intentions. This photograph serves as a reminder of our collective history - one that shaped nations through exploration and colonization but also reflects upon the diverse civilizations that have thrived across Africa over centuries.
